Hiroshi Masui (Univ. of Tsukuba) 2 QM’05 Budapest, Hungary Introduction Identified hadron v 2 Early thermalization Constituent quark scaling Partonic collectivity Energy dependence Saturation of v 2 at RHIC 50 % increase from SPS PRL 91, 182301 PRL 94, 232302

Hiroshi Masui (Univ. of Tsukuba) 3 QM’05 Budapest, Hungary Motivation Anisotropic flow can be reasonably described with hydrodynamical model at RHIC. Hydrodynamics predict large v 2 and several scaling relations v 4 /(v 2 ) 2 scaling Eccentricity scaling Scaling with system size It is crucial to test these scaling in order to understand the system properties.

Hiroshi Masui (Univ. of Tsukuba) 13 QM’05 Budapest, Hungary What’s new ? Run2002 Au+Au at s NN = 200 GeV Measured at High resolution Time-of- Flight counter. /K/p v 2 /K ~ 3 GeV/c p ~ 4 GeV/c PRL 91, 182301
14
Hiroshi Masui (Univ. of Tsukuba) 14 QM’05 Budapest, Hungary What’s new ? High statistics in Run2004 Au+Au at s NN = 200 GeV Extend p T for /K/p with simultaneous 3 gaussian fitting to mass square distribution , p p T < 5 GeV/c K, p T < 4 GeV/c
15
Hiroshi Masui (Univ. of Tsukuba) 15 QM’05 Budapest, Hungary Aerogel Aerogel can cover much higher p T. Pion is quite consistent with reco model. Proton seems to decrease for p T = 4 – 5 GeV/c Similar trend in TOF. Need further study at higher p T

Hiroshi Masui (Univ. of Tsukuba) 17 QM’05 Budapest, Hungary System size dependence Au+Au vs Cu+Cu
18
Hiroshi Masui (Univ. of Tsukuba) 18 QM’05 Budapest, Hungary Linear scaling ? AMPT An approximate linear scaling with the system size. v 2 (Cu+Cu) ~ 0.3 * v 2 (Au+Au)
19
Hiroshi Masui (Univ. of Tsukuba) 19 QM’05 Budapest, Hungary Linear scaling ? AMPT An approximate linear scaling with the system size. v 2 (Cu+Cu) ~ 0.3 * v 2 (Au+Au) First results of v 2 in smaller system, Cu+Cu < 10 % of total data v 2 seems to NOT scale by system size linearly. v 2 (Cu) ~ 0.84 * v 2 (Au)
20
Hiroshi Masui (Univ. of Tsukuba) 20 QM’05 Budapest, Hungary Eccentricity scaling v 2 (integral) ~ v 2 (p T )/v 2 (integral) Reduce systematic errors related to eccentricity calculation and event plane resolution. Scaling would be roughly independent of the system size Suggest that hydrodynamical regime is reached in central - mid-central Cu+Cu collisions. See poster by A. Taranenko
21
Hiroshi Masui (Univ. of Tsukuba) 21 QM’05 Budapest, Hungary Constituent quark scaling Smaller v 2 in Cu+Cu Similar trend for identified hadron v 2 in Cu+Cu compared to that in Au+Au Constituent quark scaling in Cu+Cu ? Need much more statistics
22
Hiroshi Masui (Univ. of Tsukuba) 22 QM’05 Budapest, Hungary Summary v 4 scaling v 4 /(v 2 ) 2 scaling ratio ~ 1.5 for both unidentified and identified hadrons. larger by factor 2 – 3 from model prediction. Identified hadron v 2 Proton v 2 seems to decrease around p T ~ 4 – 5 GeV/c. Further study need to be done at higher p T. Charm, has a strong flow ! Scaling with system size The scaling of v 2 with system size seems to not linear. Eccentricity scaling would be roughly independent of the system size Suggest that hydro regime is reached in central – mid-central Cu+Cu collisions. Similar tendency of identified hadron v 2 in Cu+Cu compared to Au+Au is observed.
